Leibniz cohomology for differentiable manifolds

Jerry M. Lodder (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

We propose a definition of Leibniz cohomology, H L * , for differentiable manifolds. Then H L * becomes a non-commutative version of Gelfand-Fuks cohomology. The calculations of H L * ( R n ; R ) reduce to those of formal vector fields, and can be identified with certain invariants of foliations.

Nondegenerate cohomology pairing for transitive Lie algebroids, characterization

Jan Kubarski, Alexandr Mishchenko (2004)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

The Evens-Lu-Weinstein representation (Q A, D) for a Lie algebroid A on a manifold M is studied in the transitive case. To consider at the same time non-oriented manifolds as well, this representation is slightly modified to (Q Aor, Dor) by tensoring by orientation flat line bundle, Q Aor=QA⊗or (M) and D or=D⊗∂Aor. It is shown that the induced cohomology pairing is nondegenerate and that the representation (Q Aor, Dor) is the unique (up to isomorphy) line representation for which the...

Cohomology of Lie groups made discrete.

Pere Pascual Gainza (1990)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

We give a survey of the work of Milnor, Friedlander, Mislin, Suslin and other authors on the Friedlander-Milnor conjecture on the homology of Lie groups made discrete and its relation to the algebraic K-theory of fields.

The local integration of Leibniz algebras

Simon Covez (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

This article gives a local answer to the coquecigrue problem for Leibniz algebras, that is, the problem of finding a generalization of the (Lie) group structure such that Leibniz algebras are the corresponding tangent algebra structure. Using links between Leibniz algebra cohomology and Lie rack cohomology, we generalize the integration of a Lie algebra into a Lie group by proving that every Leibniz algebra is isomorphic to the tangent Leibniz algebra of a local Lie rack. This article...
